Why Do I have to be Old?

Just think you all ought to know, it sucks!

Why do I say this?

Well people expect me to look a certain way and act a certain way.

They also think that i am attracted to people who are 'old' like me!

Well, just for the record it doesnt work like that, unfortunately for me.

I have friends of all ages, age doesnt make any difference in that respect...however in terms of attraction, Ive yet to meet someone around my age i am physically attracted to.

I dont know about other people, but when i see someone my age, my first instinct is to grade myself against them...this is particularly fun when you find peers from school and univeristy on facebook..you remember how they once looked

  1. Hi there, JSL

    Sorry I haven't commented on this one before now - despite the apparent posting date, it didn't appear in my Blogger dashboard until the same time as the post immediately following, just as I was in a rush preparing to go on holiday.

    Anyway, I have to agree with (and I think most others would too): the age of people that you're attracted to doesn't move with your own calendar age. I can see that there are sensible biological reasons for this, but it's still rather frustrating. This also tends to condition society's view of mixed-age relationships: they can work, but they're often not viewed positively.

    Take care
